This is unregistered. Paint is shocking, and hail damaged. LOL!

Mine was unregistered too [:P] Ended up costing me $3k to get it on the road. $13k+ for an automagic MR2 was an epic fail on my behalf, but I was young and stupid.

I'd still rather drive a banged up MR2 than an immaculate Commodore.

Been driving an automatic commodore for last 2 weeks.
Thank god thats over.

Also may have possible problem with grounding/alternator. Dash lights *red ones under speedo* seem to flash when car is idling or at low speed. The fun begins... :)

awesome car you got there for an awesome price. id love a 1K daily auto mr2.

my only thing i think it needs. is a nice 250mm steering wheel. new tyres and a nice steering wheel would make it such an enjoyable car.


i want to drive an automagic mr2 one day. id like a targa auto turbo .,..,

Thanks guys, after a cut and polish its looking little more representable.

I had it on the hoist today, looks like front shocks are leaking slightly, doubt will pass for roadworthy. Didn't plan to change them so soon, still hoping someone may have one at least that can be lent to me while i take car for inspection. Was planning to upgrade suspension (cant stand it) was hoping to do it later but looks to be bringing that forward.

Noticed Dash Lights are flashing, usually indication of bad alternator and/or ground. Any thing i can check on this? Battery seems to be holding charge fine..?

Yeh, all the red lights on the bottom of the cluster, very faintly though. Seems to happen more then anything when the car is idling at the lights.

Gave the outside a cut and polish, im actually really surprised by the results, apart from the obvious hail damage and the paintwork on the roof its in actually really good condition.

Sorry to hijack the thread but the firewall, is that how they look without the fibrous stuff on there? Or was there two different types of heat insulation?
